April / 26. Also, the Duke's son, George, was blind and therefore he may not even have considered trying to promote what he saw as a lost cause. In the same way, Prince Charles is heir to the throne today followed by his eldest son Prince William and not Charles's brother Prince Andrew.I don't understand why the throne passed to Victoria, rather than one of her surviving uncles upon the death of William. He was Duke of Cumberland from 1726.
DUKE OF CUMBERLAND, 1644: Prince Rupert, Duke of Cumberland (1619–1682) Sophia of Hanover (1630–1714) m. Ernest Augustus of Brunswick: King Charles II (1630–r.1660–1685) King James II (1633–1701, r.1685–1688) DUKE OF CUMBERLAND, 1689: King George I (1660–r.1714–1727) Queen Mary II (1662–r.1689–1694) m. King William III (1650–r.1689–1702) Ernest and all his brothers were tall. And Thomas Garth was not tall.
Prinz Wilhelm August, Duke of Cumberland KG KB (* 15. Ernest became King of Hanover as women were excluded from the succession there.How did Yound Cumberland lose his sight?I'm sorry but I don't know.
On 4 March 1767, the Duke of Cumberland allegedly married Olive Wilmot (later Mrs Payne), a commoner, in a secret ceremony. He is best remembered for his role in putting down the Jacobite Rising at the Battle of Culloden in 1746, which made him immensely popular throughout Britain. Edward only had one child, Victoria, and so she became Queen. He certainly seemed to be overly fond of his sister and it would explain why Garth remained in favour, but Garth could equally well have been the father of young Thomas Garth.
Can you explain the succession?Thanks for the suggestion - I'm not familiar with this writing.I have not come across this suggestion, Charlotte. I agree that it is possible that Ernest fathered a child by Sophia, but the evidence is, as you say, circumstantial. Prince William Augustus, Duke of Cumberland, KG, KB, FRS (26 April 1721 [N.S.] I think there was a lot of bad feeling between the Duke and Victoria who was a constant reminder of how close he had been to the throne of England.
William IV had given his consent to a new constitution in 1833; the Duke of Cumberland's consent was neither asked nor received, and he had formally protested against the constitution's adoption without his consent. Most sources simply refer to it as an unspecified childhood accident or illness, or possibly both as some record that he lost his sight in one eye and then the other a few years later.Rachel, that is incredible - looks like in more ways than we could ever know, England was very lucky Victoria became its ruler, rather than Ernest.I do not understand why, when Willian IV died did the throne of England not go to Cumberland, being a brother of George IV and William, neither having a legitimate heir.Charlot this is a late response to your interesting question as I wonder have you looked into what Greg Hallet has written about Victoria and the blind prince(George) getting together?
Prince George of Denmark and Norway, Duke of Cumberland (Danish : Jørgen ; 2 April 1653 – 28 October 1708), was the husband of Queen Anne, who reigned over Great Britain from 1702 to 1714. I vaguely remember reading something that suggested a rather nasty childhood accident, but I have been unable to find the account.
